At the end of October Highlander will get its first ever 4K-release (https://www.seenit.co.uk/highlander-is-getting-a-4k-uhd-blu-ray-and-digital-release-in-october/). Stated among the extras on the disc are: NEW – The Immortal Attraction Of Highlander: Looking back at four decades of Highlander magic in a brand new and exclusive 56 documentary featuring new interviews with Director, cast and other key crew
NEW – A Kind Of Magic: Music Of The Immortals: A featurette on the Soundtrack
NEW – Capturing Immortality: Interview with photographer David James
NEW – There Can Be Only One Kurgan – Clancy Brown remembers Highlander
NEW – Audio Commentary with author Jon Melville
Audio Commentary with Russell Mulcahy
Audio Commentary with William Panzer and Bill Davis I wonder if any new interviews with Roger or Brian were recorded, or is it all Michael Kamen?

We could see a nice physical release of the 4K A Kind of Magic video and maybe a surprise 4K version of Princes of the Universe.
Yay speculation!

The way I’m reading it, this is the 30th Anniversary 4K remaster finally presented in 4K? Does the Blu-Ray also contain the film or just the extras?

It's been out on 4k for a while. This could be a UHD upgrade, but that's not guaranteed...

Michael Kamen died in 2003 so I doubt the new interviews are with him!!

According to Amazon this isn’t coming out in the US until December 13th. But the description calls it the 30th Anniversary Edition and the runtime is only 90 minutes with no mention of the special features so who knows?

The December 13th release date for the US is confirmed elsewhere, including by Lionsgate. It lists a 111-minute runtime and all the extra features included in the Studio Canal release. Best Buy has nice looking artwork for the steelbook which is better looking than Zavvi's, I'd say:  |

Strangely I'm not overly excited by this. The film was so so, in my opinion, and my only real interest is the Queen music, so as they're still not including a soundtrack CD (of the different versions we haven't got), I won't be purchasing this unless it appears in the bargain bins.
